This table is a great option for those who don’t want worry about maintenance, have kids or frequent get togethers. It can be hosed down whenever needed and left in the rain. I love the look of it. It’s a modern and sleek look that compliments so many different decors. We can easily fit 8 people around it. My only complaint is that it is not easy to put together. It took my husband over 2 hours. It isn’t a difficult set up, the holes simply don’t all match up. It is a frustrating endeavour. But once it is completed it is a nice table.
